Nearly half the world’s population lives in regions where there is a risk of contracting malaria. In many of these regions, nets provide important protection against the Anopheles mosquito. Bayer Technology Services has made valuable contributions to the development of a new generation of these mosquito nets.

Today’s advanced mosquito nets are treated with insecticide. However, they are in frequent need of improvement because the requirements of the WHO are becoming increasingly stringent. For example, one challenge is to combine high tear strength with a pleasant feel. At the same time, the effectiveness of the nets must not be reduced even after 20 washings. Bayer Technology Services and Bayer CropScience dedicated themselves to these tasks in a cooperative effort...

Great things can be accomplished by combining theory and practice. On the basis of suitable experiments, experts are more or less able to predict certain properties of a substance before the substance even exists. Practical experience is also invaluable.

Developments at Bayer MaterialScience include holographic films for additional applications. Identifying the most suitable substances - in other words, the optimal functional chemicals - for these films would have required countless laboratory experiments. Fortunately, Bayer MaterialScience was familiar with the modeling capabilities of Bayer Technology Services ...

Site master planners play an important role at Bayer Technology Services. The experts optimize existing plants when they start running up against the limits of their capacity. And they design new plants on greenfield sites.

Third-party companies also rely on the technical know-how and operating expertise of the site master planners at Bayer Technology Services. For example, the world’s largest producer of phenol and acetone: Ineos Phenol. The company wanted to relocate an existing process along with all its new equipment to a new plant in China. A recommendation led the company’s decision-makers to Bayer Technology Services for advice - with their own site master plan already in their pocket ...
